💰🏥Can increased funding translate into better primary healthcare?
The Early Experience With Global Budget Capitation for Primary Health Care in Kenya policy brief examines Kenya’s shift to Global Budget Capitation under @_shakenya. While the reform has significantly increased funding reaching public primary healthcare facilities in Nairobi, timely payments and facility capacity remain critical challenges.
💡The findings highlight that financing reforms require more than increased funding. Predictable disbursements, facility-level financial autonomy, stronger financial management capacity and a stable health workforce are essential to translating resources into improved healthcare services.

In Kilifi, women farmers face barriers to land, markets & resources.
Through #Tushauriane, communities are listening, learning & breaking harmful norms with audio dramas on gender, empowerment & agroecology.
At the heart of real change is partnership & action.
In Samburu, youth aren’t waiting for change they’re leading it. BIOTISHO proved it.
In Samburu, youth face tough issues, teen pregnancy, malnutrition & few opportunities.
BIOTISHO, a youth-led SBC campaign, shared knowledge & safe spaces for real conversations.
Because at the heart of real change is local action.
